What reading level is The Oxford History of Music volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

For in considering the English school of this period it would seem to be desirable, if we may venture to formulate any final conclusion at all from the scanty material at our disposal, that we should perceive, rather more clearly than hitherto, the existence of two branches. One of these, represented almost exclusively in foreign codices, was established abroad, as it would seem, during the first quarter of the fifteenth century probably soon after Agincourt, in the years during which so much o...f France became for a time English ground while the other, whose work is seen chiefly in the Selden and Old Hall MSS. , continued the native tradition in this country. The method of the English composers whose works are found abroad is remarkable chiefly for its renunciation of arbitrary discords. These, though always forbidden since 1400 by the learned treatise-writers, had been abundantly sanctioned in practice by Machault and Landini, and were continued by those who came after, not necessarily entirely from choice, but partly because the methods of avoiding them were not apparent until they were revealed in the florid faulx bourdon discant.
